    I only found one forum post similar and it was unanswered. I am hoping things have changed since that older post.

    So I just got a Wacom One tablet and would like to use it with Inkscape. However, on input devices, it only shows the system aggregated pointer. I have my preferences set to change tablet devices when detected. Now I can still use the tablet, but it is awfully calibrated to the point of not being usable (and only in Inkscape). I think it is looking at windows looking at Wacom if that makes sense. I would love any more troubleshooting tips. The Wacom has the latest drivers and has been calibrated and works fine everywhere else. Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: Here is a link to demonstrate how off it is when I use it: Screenshot Additionally I tried downloading an older version, which did see the tablet >> save the XML preferences file and then redownloaded 1.0.1. Didn't work.

    Same here, it's a known bug. There are at least two reports on Gitlab, so hopefully it's addressed in an update soon.
